I believe she is. Normally if she had been paying into the Spanish system of x number of years (I think its 10 or 15 but don't quote me on that) she would only have to pay 180euros, a reduction due to age, although I believe the age is 65 not 60 for this. But if she hasn't, then Social Security make you pay the full amount.

You have to fill in a modelo 030 form. NOT the 036. THe 036 registers you as a company or self employed worker.  I can't link you as I need to have made 10 posts but if you go to the aeat web site and go to Oficina Virtual you can search for the 030 cambio de domicillio documention and print it off... But don't do the 036 otherwise Mr. Tax man will want to know why you are not declaring your quarterly taxes and Mr. Social Security man will want to know where his 250euros a month is.
